There's some potentially funky stuff there like CUPS, which runs a local daemon that serves binary CGIs (though I think it's bound to localhost by default).

Might be wise to turn all network-listening services off that you don't immediately need until a fix is available.

I would go further and suggest that now is an excellent time to ask which of those services you really need to have at all. The default of blocking incoming connections is right for most people, even developers.
